Over the last 5 years I have bought some custom suits for myself and my son who is in law school. The experience has been fantastic each time and I will return for more. The quality of the materials used for our suits is outstanding and the fit and quality equally great. I had always heard that custom suits are the best investment and after my experience at JHD, I have to agree! Highly recommended.
